Black and White

Personally I love black and white. I don't have a single color image hanging in my home. Something about breaking down the world into elements of light and dark makes these images much more emotional to me.

Black and White photography from around Maine and the good old US of A!

Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse

The breakwater in Rockland juts out almost a mile into the ocean protecting the harbor from the worst of winter storms. I'm astounded by the feats of engineering required to produce something as aesthetically simple as a breakwater.

I like in this image how you can see the chop on the left and get a feel for how the whole contraption works with the glass smooth water on the harbor side to the right.
